I was wondering if could install a HID conversion kit on my 2000 xj8L? or just purchase a specific bulb at my local automotive store.

 

there are a couple of threads on here that talk about and even show you how to install a HID kit, but a HID kit for our cars is not a simple plug and play, a little bit of creativity is involved, take a look a this thread, some people show you how they installed their kits

Thanks!

 

if you are going to go through with an install, post pics and give us a rundown on the process. make sure to include all trials and errors. i was contemplating to go with hid, but decided to go with H7 xenon blue lights. i haven't bought them yet as i want to replace all lighting (interior and exterior) with same or close enough color emission - blue in my case. here's an example:

hellas are a brand name but you may find something a bit cheaper on ebay.
